Guts, brains, and firepower - Hornet Leader PC has kicked its tires and lit the fires and is now available for purchase!

Matrix Games and Dan Verssen Games (www.dvg.com) are thrilled to announce that Hornet Leader PC is now available for purchase! Now gamers can take to the skies and experience the tactical thrill of commanding some of the most elite aircraft in the world in historical/plausible missions with impressively realistic equipment and enemies.

David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games, said “Hornet Leader PC makes for a stunning game based on Dan Verssen’s talented game design and the great development skills of Derek DiBenedetto and Storm Cloud Creations.”

Dan Verssen of Dan Verssen Games added “It’s really gratifying to see a card game which has done so well in the past now take up a digital form and become available to the public. Matrix Games’ assistance helped this release to become one of my best product releases.”

Derek DiBenedetto of Storm Cloud Creations also added “The release of Hornet Leader PC is particularly exciting for me as I had a blast developing it alongside Dan Verssen and Matrix Games. It’s been great bringing this project together and creating something truly unique.”

In Hornet Leader PC, you command a squadron of the U.S. Navy’s elite F/A-18 Hornet Strike Fighters! You select the pilots and arm the aircraft based on real-world mission briefings. Once you reach your objective, you evaluate threats, and do what needs to be done to destroy the target!

Each pilot has his own set of unique skills and abilities. With each mission, a pilot’s skills increase, but so does his fatigue level. You must decide how hard to push your men as one of the many decisions that go into every mission. You will fly high intensity missions over Iraq, Libya, and North Korea from 1991 to 2007. Your weapon selection for each campaign is updated to accurately match the weapons available for that era.

We’ll see you in the pilots’ briefing room!

Legions of RTS fans have been keeping their eyes on Empires Apart since it was first announced.

It has been in closed Beta since September 2017 and the developers from DESTINYbit have been working hard to make it the RTS game they always wanted to play. After collecting the invaluable feedback of several thousand testers who took part in the Beta, we’re now getting closer and closer to release.

After the assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC, the Roman Republic found itself in mortal danger. The infighting that followed eventually saw the end of the Republic and the birth of the Principate, with Octavianus Augustus sole ruler of the newly-established Roman Empire.

Victory after victory, the Empire slowly expanded, reaching its maximum extent in 117 AD. But dominance couldn't be held forever. Internal and external threats undermined stability in the centuries that followed. To ease administration, the empire was eventually divided into western and eastern halves, each with its own emperor. Under the constant pressure of large Germanic confederations, the western half eventually collapsed, and in 476 AD the last western emperor was deposed.
